Al Portico Guest House
About
Located in the heart of Venice’s vibrant Cannaregio district, Al Portico Guest House offers a charming blend of traditional Venetian style and modern comfort. The 10 rooms are housed in a early‑20th‑century building that has been lovingly restored, preserving historic details while providing all the conveniences of a contemporary boutique hotel. A shared terrace on the roof of the building serves breakfast between April and October, giving guests a relaxed setting to enjoy coffee and views of the canal. Guests appreciate the guest house’s unbeatable location – just a short stroll from San Marco, the Rialto market and the popular San Marcuola vaporetto stop – as well as its friendly, always‑available staff who are eager to arrange guided tours and recommend local eateries. The rooms feature air‑conditioning, a desk, a wardrobe, and a private bathroom with either a bathtub or shower, and accommodations range from standard to superior to triple, catering to couples, friends and small families. Al Portico is well‑known for its affordable rates (starting at €131 per night) and its commitment to safety and sustainability, including daily ozone‑based sanitation and a focus on accessible facilities. Whether you’re exploring Venice’s historic streets on foot or looking for a tranquil base to rest after a day of sightseeing, this boutique guest house delivers a warm, authentic experience that feels as if you’re staying in a home rather than a hotel.
